“Make the most of the Indian hemp seed, and sow it everywhere!” – George Washington

Dear friends and listeners, as Ron Paul has said, we must now move forward in revolution no matter the outcome of the National “Selections.” This doesn’t mean we are giving up on the political process and in fact many of us are delegates to State Conventions, hoping to be selected for the National Convention so we can vote for Ron Paul. After much thought and deliberation we decided to focus on the issues of financial, medical and food preparedness to secure you and your families from the uncertain times headed our way. RPR Radio will carry the feeds of “We The People Radio Network” this week as we transition into “Neighborhood 21 Radio Network” (The Neighborhood of the 21st Century) which will be located at www.n21radio.com. RPRRadio.com will continue to point and link to the new network website after the transition, so we won’t be hard to find. To make room for many of the soon to be announced preparedness Experts, we had to let some shows go and we will always love and miss them too, but we felt it was imperative to start a dialog about preparedness before it’s too late. We hope you take the time to visit and begin the process of preparing for the possible collapse of our economy. Control of essential items needed for our survival will be the tool used to control people and those who know how to prepare will not be subject to outside control during any state of emergency. So please join n21radio.com for more cutting edge programming that you won’t find no where else. Remember, the Revolution has not ended, to the contrary, its only just begun and we will be here bringing you the latest information on all the topics you care about.

From the great mind that brought you documentaries such as “Martial Law 9/11: The Rise of the Police State” and “Dark Secrets Inside Bohemian Grove” comes a new movie to awaken the masses. TerrorStorm goes into documented cases of government-sponsored terror before exposing the 7/7 bombings as an orchestrated event and brings another update on the current state of the 9/11 Truth Movement.

Regrettably, a host of these executive orders remain on the books, and they confer upon the presidency a vast array of powers. When exercised, these powers can bore so many holes into the Constitution, its usual protections are virtually eliminated. With a crisis looming, and with a simple signature, a president has the power to:

Order the government to seize control over all media, including television, radio, newspapers, and the internet (E.O. 10995);

Order the government to take over all food resources and farms (E.O.10998);

Order the government to take over all energy, power, mining, and transportation (E.O. 10997, 10990, 11003, and 11005);

Order the government to register, relocate, and mobilize civilians into labor groups under government surveillance (E.O. 11000, 11002, and 11004);

Order the government to establish control over the health, education, welfare, mechanisms of production and distribution, energy sources, wages, salaries, credit, and the flow of money in U.S. financial institutions (E.O. 11921 and 11001).

How many of these planks does your current elected official support?
Ron Paul has been trying to educate America as to how our system has implemented the foundations of fascism/communism.
It is amazing how complacent we have become as Americans.

1. Abolition of property in land and application of all rents of land to public purposes.

This is the infamous “abolition of private property” that is at the root of Marxist Socialism. Can you truly own land in America today? Do you pay a property tax on your home and the land upon which is sits? If you do, you are effectively paying rent to the government. If you are renting something from someone, you are certainly not the true owner. And, yes, those rents do go for public purposes. A very bright man named Bill Medina pointed out to me years ago that the word “public” in present-day usage (and obviously in Marx’s lexicon) really means government-owned. Do you own your car? You must pay the government rent in the form of a registration fee and in the form of a license fee if you are going to get any use from that vehicle. The two most significant purchases of private property that most people makes in their lives, their home and their car, are actually nothing less than leasing agreements made with the State. (Marx liked to capitalize the word “State.”)

2. A heavy progressive or graduated income tax.

Do we have a progressive income tax imposed upon us by the federal government and, in many instances, the particular state of the Union in which we live? Therefore, your paycheck is not your private property either, is it?

3. Abolition of all right of inheritance.

Do we have inheritance tax in this nation? You cannot pass down what you believed was your private property to your children without giving the State a juicy piece of the action, can you?

4. Confiscation of the property of all emigrants and rebels.

If you move out of America and don’t keep paying your taxes on your property (even if you are no longer a social burden upon “the system”) your property will be confiscated. If you rebel against the system, and become a tax honesty advocate your property be confiscated (without Constitutional due process, I might add) by the IRS

5. Centralization of credit in the hands of the State, by means of a national bank with State capital and an exclusive monopoly.

This is the Federal Service System. Ironically the Fed is not a government body. It is a privately-owned and incorporated banking monopoly controlled at international levels. This fact is the most blatant indication of who was, and is, behind the creation and sustenance of Communism. The State pretends that the Fed is a national government banking system. The State enforces the edicts of the Fed with armed police authority. “State capital” is the fiat currency known as Federal Reserve Notes (unbacked by gold or silver, and created out of thin air). If you want to know if the Fed’s funny money is a monopoly, try printing your own and using it in commerce.

6. Centralization of the means of communication and transport in the hands of the State.

We have the Federal Communication Commission that regulates what you can hear over the radio and taxes the radio stations. Telephone communication is regulated and taxed by the government. And the State now lusts for a chunk of the Internet. Additionally, the state licenses, taxes, surcharges, and regulates all transportation on land, in the air, and on the waterways, whether it be for private or commercial use. If you do not pay the fees, you will be arrested on the highway, on the landing strip, or on the river.

7. Extension of factories and instruments of production owned by the State; the bringing into cultivation of waste-lands, and the improvement of the soil generally in accordance with a common plan.

The control of industry by government has expanded into every factory and instrument of production (essentially that’s a human being, according to Marx). Your little wood shop is not yours, you are the manager doing the will of the State. You may think you own yourself as a means of production, but you have to give damn near half of what you produce to the State every payday. As for the bringing into cultivation of wastelands, we can see this every time the government allows logging, mining or grazing on public land. This cultivation of these resources by apparent private concerns is heavily taxed. The state always gets a share, the improvement of the soil in accordance with a common plan is nothing more than the insidious corporate monopolization of farmland via government-sponsored chemical fertilizer schemes, irrigation boondoggles, and sneaky agricultural lending and foreclosure policies.

8. Equal liability of all to labor. Establishment of industrial armies, especially for agriculture.

We picture a bunch of Russian peasants being marched out for their day in the potato fields, but your labor is already liable, as the income tax. We all do our fair share for the greater good, don’t we? Where the Soviets could only get most of the people to chip in for the common good, our wonderful democratic (I thought we had a Republic) form of government has each and every one of us dripping sweat for its benefit.

9. Combination of Agriculture with manufacturing industries; gradual abolition of the distinction between town and country, by the equitable distribution of population over the country.

Hmmm, they haven’t done this one yet! But wait…Almost all former family farms are now owned by multi-national corporations. Remember that what we have now is Fascist Communism so that the Government and the Corporations are basically the government.

10. Free education for all children in public schools. Abolition of children’s factory labor in its present form. Combination of education with industrial production, etc., etc..

Remember, public means government-controlled. The government gets to educate your kids and turn them into nice little obedient production units that will be shepherded as a human resource. Child labor in factories was really nasty, so we’ll just use NAFTA and GATT to exploit the kids of the Third World. Industrial producers and the military exploit medical and technological discoveries by students in taxpayer-funded universities, so I guess we’re on our way with that one as well.

Representative Paul, whose presidential campaign prominently featured the ending of the drug war as a platform plank, was joined by Representative Barney Frank (D-MA) in sponsoring this bill.

“I think marijuana is a helpful medical treatment for the people who have intractable nausea,” Paul said in a 2004 House debate regarding a similar measure. “I would like to point out this is not something strange that we are suggesting here. For the first 163 years of our history in this country, the federal government had total hands off, they never interfered with what the states were doing.”

Twelve states have approved the use of medical marijuana, beginning with California in 1996 with the passage of Proposition 215. The DEA continues to raid and harass medicinal cannabis dispensaries operating within these states’ laws. Presidential candidates Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama have both indicated they would end such raids should they be elected.

Michigan will vote on an initiative to adopt medical cannabis legislation this November. Minnesota and Rhode Island’s respective legislatures are also considering pro-reform legislation this year.

The day is finally upon us! WE HAVE A DATE! We also have confirmation that Ron Paul will be the keynote speaker at our march and rally in Washington D.C. The date will be July 12, 2008, the march will end at the rally point on the West side of Capitol Hill. More details on the march start point and march route will be released soon!

We want to make this a huge event! As of now, we have had over 14,000 people pledge to march and rally with us! We want 100,000 plus to be there and create one loud voice advocating freedom and less government. We thank Dr. Ron Paul for being our keynote speaker and we will publish a list of other great speakers in the coming weeks.

Like many of you, we were looking forward to marching on June 21. Unfortunately, this was not possible due to permitting. We did get permits for the dates of July 12 and August 2, so we decided to reach out to the excited members of the Revolution to find out which date you preferred. The results of the poll on our website had July 12 as the preferred date with 47% of the vote. Once Dr. Paul confirmed his availability for this date, it was a done deal! We know this movement isn’t about dates, it is about freedom, less government, and personal responsibility. So if that was not the best date for you, we hope that you will do your best to arrange your schedule to support the rest of us who are already committed to that date. We hope that this helps continue to spread the word and message of Dr. Paul and the Ron Paul Revolution!

Volunteers are now needed more than ever. Please visit http://www.revolutionmarch.com and volunteer today. We really need help with stage, lighting and sound. Another big area we could us help with is Public Relations, anyone who has a business or expertise in areas of Public Relations please contact us ASAP. There are plenty of other things we need help with to make this a big and successful event so please join us today.

This lecture by Hans-Hermann Hoppe, was presented at the 2006 Ludwig von Mises Institute Supporter’s Summit, “Imperialism: Enemy of Freedom.”

Imperialism takes many forms, and is driven by many motivations, but its result has this in common with all forms of state interventions: it fails to achieve the overt aims of its proponents and it leaves the subjects touched by it less free.

Philosophy

Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just Powers from the Consent of the Governed, that whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive to these Ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its Foundation on such Principals...

...the inalienable Rights of Life, Liberty, and the Pursuit of Happiness.
